Intended Use

The Cervage cage is indicated for cervical interbody fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with cervical disc disease at one level from the C2-C3 disc to the C7-T1 disc. Cervical disc disease is defined as intractable radiculopathy and/or myelopathy with herniated disc and/or osteophyte formation on posterior vertebral endplates producing symptomatic nerve root and/or spinal cord compression confirmed by radiographic studies. This device is to be used in patients who have had six weeks on non-operative treatment. The Cervage cage is to be used with supplemental fixation. The Cervage cage is also required to be used with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and is to be implanted via an open, anterior approach.

Device Story

Cervage is a PEEK interbody cage for cervical fusion; implanted via open anterior approach. Device features hollow geometry for packing with autograft or allogenic bone graft; requires supplemental fixation. Used by surgeons in clinical settings to provide structural support and correction between cervical vertebral bodies. Benefits patients by facilitating fusion in cases of symptomatic nerve root or spinal cord compression.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence demonstrated via non-clinical bench testing, including static and dynamic axial compression, torsion, compression shear (ASTM F2077-14), subsidence (ASTM F2267-04), and expulsion testing, alongside biocompatibility and sterilization validation.

Technological Characteristics

PEEK (ASTM F2026) cage with tantalum x-ray markers (ASTM F560/ISO 13782). Some variants feature CP Ti coating (ASTM F1580). Provided sterile or non-sterile. Mechanical performance validated per ASTM F2077-14, ASTM F2267-04, and ASTM F-04.25.02.02.

Indications for Use

Indicated for skeletally mature patients with cervical disc disease (intractable radiculopathy/myelopathy, herniated disc, or osteophyte formation) at one level from C2-C3 to C7-T1, following six weeks of failed non-operative treatment.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.

Special Controls

*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval. (c) *Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required.* Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

Dear Kellen Hills:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820);

### (a)(4) Device Description:

The Cervage cage consists of PEEK cages of various lengths and heights, which can be inserted between two cervical vertebral bodies to give support and correction during cervical interbody fusion surgeries. The hollow geometry of the implants allows them to be packed with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft. The devices are made from PEEK radiolucent material (ASTM F2026) with embedded tantalum x-ray markers (ASTM F560 or ISO 13782). The coated cages are coated with medical grade CP Ti (ASTM F1580) and are provided sterile. The non-coated cages are provided sterile or non-sterile. The device must be used with supplemental fixation. The purpose of this submission is to gain initial marketing authorization in the United States.

- Indications for Use: (a)(5)
The Cervage cage is indicated for cervical interbody fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with cervical disc disease at one level from the C2 - C3 disc to the C7 - T1 disc. Cervical disc disease is defined as intractable radiculopathy and/or myelopathy with herniated disc and/or osteophyte formation on posterior vertebral endplates producing symptomatic nerve root and/or spinal cord compression confirmed by radiographic studies. This device is to be used in patients who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. The Cervage cage is to be used with supplemental fixation. The Cervage cage is also required to be used with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and is to be implanted via an open, anterior approach.

{4}------------------------------------------------

- (a)(6) Comparison of Technological Characteristics:
The Cervage device has the same intended use and is similar in basic shape, material and performance characteristics to the predicate device. The technological characteristics do not raise any new questions of safety and efficacy.

### (b)(1) Non-clinical testing:

The worst case devices were evaluated for mechanical performance in Static and Dynamic Axial Compression, Static and Dynamic Torsion, Static and Dynamic Compression Shear according to ASTM F2077-14, Subsidence according to ASTM F2267-04 and Expulsion in accordance with ASTM F-04.25.02.02. Cleaning and sterilization as well as implantable device biocompatibility endpoints were also evaluated.

## (b)(2) Clinical testing:

Clinical testing was not required to demonstrate substantial equivalence in this premarket notification.

## (b)(3) Conclusions:

Based on the information provided in this premarket notification, we believe that the subject Cervage device demonstrates substantial equivalence to the identified predicate devices.
